2011 Is Just Around Corner

The first thing you would want to ask, is where is our country headed when it comes to our energy sources, what’s the presidents plan? I have read what the president has said, that we need to seize the moment and that we have to accelerate the moment.

And I agree, pass the laws necessary and start making the corporations adhere to them, but convince them the time is now for them to start to be proactive. The movers and shakers have to start making phone calls, writing memos; this is the time for action.

Start motivating small companies to get on the band wagon, hiring and training people to perform the work, the brain trusts need to start creating brain storms with flashes of lightning and the sound of thunder; we should not be in the planning stages still. I don’t want to use that old baseball metaphor about the ninth inning.

We need to put this country back to work; its time to move into the new energy wave, the information age has been here long enough. China’s plan to invest in light rail makes our plan look pitiful, they want to connect the whole country, and we want to run one line. We have ideal areas and conditions to harness wind energy, we need to move that opportunity.

New Zealand’s Genesis plan will provide 600mw of wind farm energy; these are the area’s we need to going. Australia’s plan is to be 100 pct renewable within 10 years using proven technological solutions available today, what these two countries are doing is exciting and should be an inspiration to us.

I have been recently watching the history channel’s specials on Ancient Aliens, and it made me wonder what kinds of technological advancement are available to us that we might not know about or have even overlooked. Radiant energy is looking very good, at less than the fraction of the cost of regular electricity; radiant heat has also been good for heating homes through the floor and at very little cost.

The type of technological advancement that takes us into a new future is not as important as the intent and motivation that build behind it, whatever the device or devices it will be the urgency and the willingness that support it and creates the energy needed to carry it forward and make it successful.

Think of it as a dance between the energy we put behind finding the solutions and the solutions themselves that we need to keep this planet healthy and put 26,000,000 people back to work. We did it with the industrial revolution; we can do it with our energy challenge.

2012 is only a year away, we don’t have much time, and we need to save this planet before the Universe destroys it. Of course I am joking, but the urgency I am implying is quite real. Nanotechnology is a very new area for us, but with a very real threat we have not been able to fully understand yet and many other implication in regards to safety to ourselves and to the planet.

Much research needs to be done, much precaution needs to take place, like nuclear energy there is a lot at stake and too many unknowns. Because of so much secrecy and competitiveness between governments and corporations it’s hard to understand how far were advanced with any given technology.

Was a very mighty and powerful country, military wise, we have weapons very far more advanced than most countries; one of the ways we got is because there was lot of money to be made from the war machine, so very powerful groups of people got involved, that can happen again with a new energy wave, but they are comfortable with the status quo.
